A place to share anything about visible mending, or any mending projects at all! Textiles and clothes take a lot of resources and time to make, now and all through history. Visible mending celebrates the clothes on our backs by taking care of them instead of throwing them away. Feel also free to post non-cloth or -textile (visible) mends! Not every post needs to be about something being repaired, and we accept zero waste fashion and secondhand projects, as they uphold the spirit of mending. Pre-distressed clothing does not fit well here, unless used as a mending example. Mends do not HAVE to be expressly "Visible" if process or before images are displayed as well.

Sashiko fixed bigger holes
Already went through multiple phases of fixing, and the backdrop cloth for the bigger holes even started to wash out. This part was fixated through my first try with the shashiko approach.
